Volume Nine Number Two
On-Line Registration at Eastview High School
The registration process at EVHS offers students, with the assistance of their parents, an opportunity to plan their
educational path for the 2006-2007 school year. This year, students/parents will register on-line at www.district196.org/
evhs between February 8 and February 16 for current grade 9-11 students and January 12 through January 27 for current
8th grade students. Students/parents will have the opportunity to complete their registration from school, home, work, the
public library or any other location where there is access to a computer and the Internet. Because these decisions will impact
course offerings and staffing decisions, adjustments will not be made to student registration course selections after February
6th, unless they occur during the Registration Review Period prior to each semester and are supported by the school course
change guidelines. The following timeline will help you plan your registration decisions.

GUIDANCE DEPARTMENT
Applying for Financial Aid
1. All financial aid begins with the (FAFSA) Free Application
for Federal Student Aid. The forms can be obtained in
the guidance office or can be completed on line at www.
fafsa.ed.gov. This application is the basis for qualifying
for any federally or state funded financial aid program.
Some individual colleges may require an additional form
to be filled out in order to obtain additional financial
information.
2. Families and students should complete their taxes as
soon as possible. With this information, fill out the FAFSA
and send it in. It is an advantage to complete the FAFSA
early. (If you cannot complete your taxes early, do not
wait. You may use estimates, but you will be required
to provide verification later.)
3. Within 3-6 weeks, the Department of Education will send
you an acknowledgement which includes your Expected
Family Contribution and any eligibility for the Federal Pell
Grant. The EFC is the amount of money that your family
is expected to contribute toward the student’s education.
This amount stays the same regardless of the cost of the
school to which the student applies.
4. Your college(s) will use the EFC to determine your
financial need with a simple formula: Cost of the school
– EFC = Financial Need. For example, if the cost of
the school is $16,000 and your EFC is $9,000 then your
financial need at that college is $7,000.
5. It is then up to the college to try to meet that need.
Your college will then construct a financial aid package
that may include scholarships, grants, loans, and work
study. You will receive notice of that package in an Award
Letter from the financial aid office.
6. You should respond to the Award Letter promptly to
notify your college that you accept all, part, or none of
the Financial Aid Package. If the financial aid package is
not adequate or you have questions, contact the financial
aid office at the college to discuss the situation.
7. If there is a change in your family’s financial status:
divorce, loss of job, significant change of income, added
medical expenses or other circumstances that may impact
your resources, contact the financial aid office at your
college to discuss the matter. The colleges have some
ability to make adjustments to accommodate special
circumstances.

Just Say “NO” to
Spring Break Trips
to Mexico
We are approaching the time of
year when your senior and sometimes
your junior student is being approached by fellow
classmates and travel agency representatives to consider a
spring break to Mexico. Eastview High School personnel
have unearthed several spring break trip itineraries to Mexico
that speak of such things as: 36 hours of free drinks; hotels
across the street from 5 major bars; foam dancing; and
drinking boat tours.
Eastview High School does not authorize nor do we
promote these spring break trips to Mexico. Eastview’s
Parents Are Key (PAK) and Eastview High School believe
groups of students should always be supervised by parents
or teachers during spring break trips. We see these trips as a
serious health and safety issue for your teen. Because nothing
is more important than the health and safety of our children,
we are writing this letter to Eastview parents to caution you
about a real and serious threat to your child’s health and
safety.
In May 1998, the Star Tribune ran a 3-day series of
articles about teen drinking. Those articles created a clear,
yet frightening description of what happens when teens are
allowed to go to Mexico during spring break.
1. “More than 1,000 Twin Cities-area high school students
flocked to this mecca of drinking, parties, sun and sex
last spring, enabled by parents who don’t say no.”
2. “For seven days, most of these kids rarely will be sober,
some of them will take risks they never would at home,
and a few will pay dearly for their lapses in judgement.”
3. “These kids get down there and explode,” said a sales
manager for a tour company that targets college students
for spring break trips. “They (high school kids) don’t know
how to handle themselves.”
4. “(Girls) faced such risks, as date-rape drugs being slipped
into their cups.”
5. “The alcohol-and sex-drive atmosphere was more
evidence that parents are forcing adulthood on kids before
they’re ready.”
6. “The anything-goes atmosphere, combined with unlimited
access to alcohol, even for those under 18, left many
parents worrying how far their children or their classmates
would go.”
We are seriously concerned about any child who goes
to Mexico with little or no supervision. Appropriate healthy
alternatives that families might consider are spring break trips
offered by spring sports teams and other school sponsored
activities.
Please also consider supporting our belief that the best
way to enjoy your senior’s last spring break would be together
as a family. Just say “NO” to spring break trips to Mexico for
the health and safety of your child.

“Generosity is contagious…
start an epidemic today.”
The Eastview High School Student Council focused
this year’s holiday drive efforts on the October 8 earthquake
in Pakistan. This was a two-fold drive, with an emphasis
on awareness and education. The awareness goal was
to construct a paper chain of 87,000 links, with each link
representing a life lost in the quake. Each fourth hour class
was invited to participate by creating 1000 links. The links
were collected and assembled by the Student Council and
displayed in the commons during the week of December
19th. The final tally was just under 65,000 links and, while
short of the original goal, made quite a visual impact.
The effort also included a fund drive for Heifer
International, with all funds earmarked for the Pakistani
region. Heifer International was selected as the recipient
for donations because of their philosophy. As their website
states: “Heifer International was founded on a simple belief:
ending hunger begins with giving people the means to feed
themselves. Today, millions of families in more than 127
countries have been given the gifts of self-reliance and hope.
Every family and community receiving animals also receives
training in environmentally-sound, sustainable agriculture.
Recipient families “pass on the gift” by sharing one or more
of their animals’ offspring with other struggling families.
Each recipient becomes a donor. This process enhances
self-esteem, ensures program continuity, builds solidarity
and multiplies the benefits of the original gift for generations
to come” (www.heifer.org). The Student Council collected
$3500 in cash donations from the EVHS community for the
Heifer project.
The EVHS Student Council would like to extend a
HUGE thank you to all of the students, staff and community
members who generously helped with both the awareness
and fund drives this holiday season! This new venture was
a great success!
